Where are manufacturers today? A majority of manufacturers have already taken steps to address the physician reporting requirements enacted in the various states. • Incorporated state disclosure requirements and thresholds within existing policies and procedures • Interpreted state requirements to understand data attributes necessary to report and mapped to source systems for data retrieval • Formalized processes and responsibilities for data collection, consolidation, validation, and reporting • Developed short-term, semi-automated solutions Primarily still a manually-intensive, cumbersome process to gather, consolidate, validate and report total physician spend National disclosure audit conference: Analysis of the revised physician payments sunshine act and state drug marketing laws Pricewaterhouse.

Unique customer identification is necessary for aggregate reporting The effort to gather and align the data to individual health care professionals becomes even more difficult as each department/business unit often has a separate profile established to identify the physician. • Most companies have established a Sales and Marketing Customer Master for matching/ merging, unique identification, and profiling • But few companies have achieved the ideal state of an enterprise-wide Customer Master to match all profiles and establish a unique HCP ID across Sales, Marketing, Medical Affairs, R&D, and Finance • More stringent reporting requirements require an understanding of organizational hierarchy and affiliations National disclosure audit conference: Analysis of the revised physician payments sunshine act and state drug marketing laws Pricewaterhouse.
